Introduction	A little about me.... I am a mother, and step-mother to 6 wonderful adult children and an Oma (grandmother) of 15. I LOVE Bluegrass and Classic Country Music, as well as New Country, going to music festivals and I enjoy doing many crafty items, but my favourite has been quilting. I had played around with a little scrapbooking several years ago, but I was more focused on my quilting. After moving half way across the country to be able to spend more time with children, grandchildren, and my aging parents I was introduced to cardmaking. The majority of my quilting supplies were still in storage when my daughter and daughter in law invited me to join them and a few friends for a card making evening. I was hooked. I was always in need of a card for a birthday, anniversary, etc. You know the feeling I'm sure ..... so I went once a month for several months and then said to the instructor, sign me up with Close To My Heart. Since then I've been working away at making my business grow and showing others how to express their own creativity.
